Jeremy:

This is really, real cool! You've done a heck of a job proving the
potential of DocBook as a source format. Great work - please send my
congratulations to the rest of Sitka. I've scanned through the content
and it looks really solid; people here will drool over it if we can
provide something parallel. Good thing XML is saliva-proof.

I noticed the commented-out license - it's great to see that that's in
progress, too.

Again, congratulations & thank you!
